you come into this environment, many people came in without a job. there were just volunteers and want to get a job. some people came because they wanted to get noticed by the right people. yes, people who had been hired who want more responsibility than in their other jobs. and department heads trying to get more budget than the other department. so you have this thing going on where it's a very chaotic time. you really need to get control of this, because in this environment where there are no norms, it's like building a village from scratch, where everybody comes to a place with no rules, no structures. it's like the wild west. not everybody -- some people have their own tactics for getting blown way. sometimes even the people lose control of their inner jerks. we all have them. so you throw an elbow at the stranger you don't know maybe and maybe that turns into an ongoing skirmish and then maybe arrival restart to develop and then blame starts to apply, reputations start to fail. your leadership can die in the very first days if you don't manage

we have to be as conscious in promoting the social environment as we are about the academic environment. addressing social skills, culture, and exhibition, ways that we can demonstrate performance. teaching social skills to students. making the curriculum a core theme. thinking carefully about the literature we use in schools. focusing on classroom community and how we build that community that supports tolerance and respect. using things like class meetings and student council. focusing on service learning as an expression of the development of character. it is a little different in high school. students can focus in on social and emotional development that they are going through. i found a powerful curriculum called facing history and ourselves. it is the study of genocide. it is a powerful motivator. how does genocide become state policy? it focuses on our engagement as a bystander or end up standard and helps students look at the ethics. what people did to that. it is about what it said in terms of a quotation about relationships. in schoolsbuilding - is key. we have to think about
